NurseHack4Health™

NurseHack4Health is a community of nurses, healthcare professionals, developers, engineers, IT experts and other innovators focused on ideating and collaborating to address today’s most pressing healthcare challenges. Through specialized programming, NurseHack4Health empowers participants with the skills and mindset needed to proactively address the dynamic challenges of healthcare. Our community began in 2019 with nurse Hackathons, weekend-long live and virtual events where individual nurses and teams envision and build solutions to real-world challenges. Today, NurseHack4Health has expanded to include shorter ‘mini hacks,’ conference innovation sprints, innovation academy, and Pitch-A-Thons, where nonprofit health system teams are eligible to receive grant funding to bring their solutions to life. Through our programming, nurses learn pragmatic ways to redefine complex healthcare issues, foster creative problem solving, prototype innovative solutions leveraging technology when possible, and integrate design methods into nursing practice and to develop a healthcare environment where nurses and patients thrive.
